Outside The Darkroom

At the exit from the darkroom
As you’re climbing up that stair
There should be written warning
Of what you’ll find out there
“On exiting this darkness
And stepping from this gloom
Beware the giant step you’ll take
Emerging from this room”
The sun is so much sunnier
The dark is not as dark
Greens and blues are brighter hues
The grey is not as stark
The fresh air so much fresher
And time is timelessly
And breathing is a breath of air
And freedom is so free
Outside the room are rainbows
And unicorns, and Pride
So why oh why, why is it I
Still find I’m back inside.
Takatāpui gender female. Been writing for a while, couple of open mic readings. My poetry reflects what I'm thinking, not necessarily what I'm feeling. Through it I describe my world.
